Today was an excellent day for trailer releases, first up we have Netflix’s upcoming newest installment of its series Monster – Monster: The Ed Gein Story, and it’s creepily deliciously good. Enjoy.

Serial killer. Grave robber. Psycho. In the frozen fields of 1950s rural Wisconsin, a friendly, mild-mannered recluse named Eddie Gein lived quietly on a decaying farm – hiding a house of horrors so gruesome it would redefine the American nightmare. Driven by isolation, psychosis, and an all-consuming obsession with his mother, Gein’s perverse crimes birthed a new kind of monster that would haunt Hollywood for decades.

From Psycho to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre to The Silence of the Lambs, Gein’s macabre legacy gave birth to fictional monsters born in his image and ignited a cultural obsession with the criminally deviant. Ed Gein didn’t just influence a genre — he became the blueprint for modern horror.

This season will focus on convicted murderer and suspected serial killer Ed Gein played by Charlie Hunnam. Other main characters will include Gein’s mother, Augusta (Laurie Metcalf), film director Alfred Hitchcock (Tom Hollander) and Hitchcock’s wife, screenwriter and film editor Alma Reville (Olivia Williams).

Monster: The Ed Gein Story is set to release on October 3, 2025, on Netflix.
